House on Sag Harbor
This waterfront family home fronts the placid western shore of Sag Harbor Bay on the east end of Long Island NY. Formally activated by barns the world over, it presents a rational plan of two rectangles at right angles, one to another. The longer form runs parallel to the beach and shelters the social functions of family life, while the shorter “barn” houses multiple bedrooms of various sizes with forested views to the sea. Between the two wings, a forecourt frames a welcoming view to the water. A large, south-facing screened porch and a 125-foot-long waterside terrace further connect the house to its site, its landscape, and a pre-existing, mid-century beachside cottage, all culminating in a tranquil waterfront repose.

NYC Parks Luis Lopez Modular Comfort Station
As part of a pilot project for the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation, 1100 designed a restroom station for Luis Lopez Park in Staten Island using modular construction. The initiative marked the first time NYC Parks pursued a project of this kind, and our commission extended beyond the pilot to include creating a replicable delivery system for future modular facilities. With New York offering only 12 public restrooms per 100,000 residents—far fewer than other major American cities—new solutions are urgently needed to address the city’s limited and deteriorating stock.
